Ingredients

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 to 3 cups chopped, smoked ham
1 large onion (diced)
3 cloves garlic (minced)

2 (16-ounce) bags frozen chopped collard greens
2 (15.5-ounce) can navy beans (drained and rinsed)
2 (14.5-ounce) cans diced tomatoes

Instructions

Heat the oil in a large stock pot or dutch oven of medium-high heat. Add the onion and ham and cook until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for about 1 minute.
Add the broth and collard greens, bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Stir in the beans and tomatoes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Cover and cook for 20 to 25 minutes or until the collards are cooked to your desired tenderness. Serve with piping hot cornbread.
